Zero Babies Homeless is an initiative led by Riseboro Community Partnership, a non-profit based in Brooklyn offering multiple services to support the New York City community. Established in 1973, they’ve offered services designed to support every generation and meet the needs of communities.
The Zero Babies Homeless inititive centered on preventing infant homelessness via direct funding to expectant mothers. Riseboro expressed the desire to have an identity for this inititave that was thought-provoking and inspired New Yorkers to take action and that Riseboro could use to appeal to key stakeholders in the city.. Many statistics on this issue aren’t well-known by most, such as the fact that the majority of shelter occupants in New York City are under the age of 5.
